Glock

Is this possible?-(read it on a 1911 forum)

I like the 1911 so none of that is a cut . Now for a side story , A friend is a cop and he and his dept love the Glock. His one complaint was in a struggle (fight) a cop hit a bad guy with his Glock and the slide came off the frame . Now I wonder if a 1911 has ever been used to whack someone and the slide fell off ? I doubt it also.

    Glock has had Blue Label for a longtime...pricing can fluctuate based on the dealer, Glock Stocking Dealers may charge more than LE Stocking dealers.

    Here's one source for the price list...

    Discount Rates And Profit Factors
    I recently sat down with Bob Radecki, GLOCK national sales manager, and Chris Edwards, GLOCK range manager/instructor, to get more information on the program.

    ?Blue Label is a sub-distribution program. It?s mainly offered as a courtesy to our law enforcement customer base, and to all others who serve as emergency first responders. It?s also a benefit for members of the GSSF,#65533; Radecki explains.
    Eligible customers get a significant discount thanks to this program.

    ?A normal Gen4 GLOCK 17 would carry a suggested retail price of $639. The retail price for the same pistol in the Blue Label Program would be $425. Wholesale cost to an FFL dealer for the same gun would be $475 for commercial sale, and $385 for a gun to sell to police,#65533; Radecki added.

    Some dealers have declined to explore the Blue Label program because of the lower margins. Using the figures above, gross profit on a standard purchase GLOCK sold at retail would be $164, and only $40 on a gun bought and sold through the Blue Label program. Not exactly appetizing, especially during times when you can easily sell every GLOCK you can get into your shop at MSRP.

    However, there are also those times when gun sales lag. There?s also the fact probably every local dealer you?re competing with can buy GLOCKs at wholesale. If you?re the only dealer in your area giving the Blue Label discount, this means you #65533; instead of your competitors #65533; will be selling and making a profit on guns to the Blue Label market. Suddenly, this makes the Blue Label option more attractive, and of course, it comes with the goodwill generated among the public safety market.
